If Chris Evans has put his Captain America costume in the closet, the American comedian has raised the possibility of a return to Steve Rogers’ costume.
Captain America, a legendary hero
Chris Evans is not the first actor to slip into the skin of the superhero that is Captain America, but certainly one of the most emblematic. Present since 2011 in the feature films of the MCU, the face of the actor is now almost inseparable from the character. Some key protagonists have found death in the last parts of the adventures of the Avengers, like the late Iron Man, Black Widow or Vision. Captain America fortunately did not experience such a tragic fate.
Thus, he fights against Thanos and his henchmen – succeeding in passing to wield the famous hammer of his sidekick Thor. After defeating them, Steve Rogers decides to go back to the past in order to place the Infinity Stones back into their respective time streams.
Only this time there will be no return trip. Conversely, Rogers chooses to resume his life alongside his sweetheart, Peggy Carter, in 1945. He passes the torch to Sam Wilson, hitherto known as Falcon, so that he becomes the new Captain America. . You will understand, it seems to be a real end clap for the actor… unless? In a recent interview with Comicbook.com, our colleagues ask Chris Evans whether or not he could return to service. His answer just below!
A possible return for Steve Rogers?
Above all, the actor is aware of the rapture that such a come-back could cause fans of the Marvel movies. But then, what does he really think of this eventuality?
Looks like it’s something people would like to see.
Only, don’t get your hopes up too quickly, since the actor adds that he doesn’t want to disappoint anyone, but that such a reversal of the situation is not clearly not on the agenda. Evans explains that all his years of service mean a lot to him. Also, to hope to see him again with his famous shield, it would be necessary in his opinion that the project be “perfect”. If this was not the case, the comedian seems to think that such a decision could harm or even spoilall his past work.
This role means so much to me.
Writers have been warned! They will have to redouble their efforts if they want to hope to convince the actor to make his big comeback in the skin of Captain America. To revisit one of the key roles of his career, the project must be “massive”, just that. A challenge made possible by the growing place of the Multiverse in the MCU? After all, Steve Rogers may exist on other planets. In the same logic, we can imagine a return of deceased characterswho would live beyond the limits of the universe as we know it.
In the meantime, if you are moping about the absence of Chris Evans in dark rooms, know that the star has not been idle. You can find it soon in The Gray Man on Netflix opposite Ryan Gosling. He also voices Buzz Lightyear in the eponymous animated feature film.
The actor will also star in Bermudaan adventure film set – as its name suggests – in the Bermuda Triangle.
